Chemistry

stare much?
do you care much
if I notice
that you noticed me?
don’t look
just read your book
read about your chemistry
you and I have chemistry
but there is no chemistry

the first time
was the last time
that I fell for
that I fell for her
test tubes
and ocean eyes
but who would you be to love me?
you never could love me
no chemistry

but who am I
to find you here?
haven’t found you yet
but there’s a fear
I’ll project
to protect
the fragile image of you inside my head
and maybe
that’s the reason I took chemistry again
